Up until Orwa was promoted to the Big Group, Kanjoro had been the only fairly big boy amongst a host of Bigger Girls, all of whom are quick to reprimand him. This has made him somewhat subservient, but now that Orwa is in the Big Girls’ Group, Kanjoro has an age-mate to challenge, and has become much bolder. Kihari, who was close by, witnessed him overpowering Orwa, and took it upon herself to drive Kanjoro from the herd to spend time out as a punishment! This was noticed by the other Big Girls, who continue to keep a close eye on Kanjoro.

Following the upgrading of Orwa to the older Group, Bomani has become another “bully” who is greedy and pushy at milk feeding times, although Balguda occasionally disciplines him. Balguda is also a greedy boy who complains loudly when his milk is finished, often chasing after the Keeper demanding more. Today Bomani knocked Balguda down as he was demanding more, so the Keepers sent him off to spend time out. On his return he knocked down Faraja who was merely feeding on some greens.

Murera seems to be not overly fond of newcomer Narok, tending to push Narok away whenever she comes close, nor does Murera respond to the Keepers when reprimanded. For the past two days Teleki has been a good boy, and refrained from running away from the others, instead feeding close to Turkwel and Kainuk. He enjoyed playing and rolling in a fresh pile of red earth placed at the mudbath venue. Kanjoro is beginning to bully Orwa, often taking away leaves that Orwa is eating.
